Expand your knowledge and skills with a double degree!
As a student of the Master’s in Public Administration, you have the opportunity to add a second master’s to your programme by following a double degree, that we offer together with the Master's in Philosophy of Science, Technology & Society (PSTS) at UT. How can governments ensure security of citizens’ data in times of rapid technological change? If you combine the Master’s in PSTS and the Master’s in Public Administration, you will address complex political-administrative, societal, and technological challenges within the public sector. You will learn to analyse, develop, and implement public policies and to resolve multiple – and often highly conflicting – stakeholders’ interests.
Upon completion, you will receive two Master’s:
- Master of Science in Public Administration
- Master of Science in Philosophy of Science, Technology & Society
Structure and how to apply
In addition to the (elective) courses that are part of the UT Master’s in Philosophy of Science, Technology & Society, you will acquire in-depth knowledge and skills in analysing, developing, and implementing public policies and resolving multiple – and often highly conflicting – stakeholders' interests. You will follow courses from the Master’s in Public Administration such as Deliberative Governance of Knowledge & Innovation, Public Governance and Policy Networks, and Crisis Management in Technological Domains, among others. You can complete your double degree by writing a joint master’s thesis.
If you want to enrol on the double degree programme, you have to apply for both master’s programmes separately. This means that you need to comply with the admission requirements of both programmes. The double degree takes two years to complete.
